I don't know who any of these people are.

Yeah, for Mulholland Drive alone, I think you might be right.

Louis looks too much like Mo Rocca in that picture.

Justin also seemed interesting in an interview in Bust conducted by Mary Louise Parker.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 19 May 2006 15:46 (nineteen years ago)

He was killed too quickly on Alias. A pity.

Justin Theroux

Personal quotes

It's like, once you've seen Tom Hanks win the Golden Globes, the Oscars, you've seen his wife, what kind of car he drives, when you watch his movies, you can't fully get really lost in them.

I watched the movie Cast Away. It's a perfectly fine movie. But you can never fully believe that movie. How can we believe this man is being cast away? We know it's Tom Hanks and we know the color of his couch in his house in L.A. because we saw a picture of it in People magazine. His celebrity has corrupted his art form.

All the stuff with the World Trade Organization, the kids in Seattle throwing a bricks through Starbucks windows - I see it as a good thing. It's saying, like "F--k you." As long as no one's killing one another, I don't think there's anything wrong with throwing a brick through the window of McDonalds. I'm sort of inspired when I see people thinking like that.

If I was roped into a seven-year TV contract I'd probably hang myself. It's a TV show - selling cars, cereal, soda pop. TV is like that. The shows are incidental to the commercials. I always laugh when TV shows pat themselves on the back for being cutting-edge. I mean, an interracial kiss on "Ally McBeal" is cutting-edge? I've never been shocked by anything on television, except the news.

Starred in rock band Muse's film clip "Hysteria."

Ewwww.

The Mercury Krueger (Ex Leon), Friday, 19 May 2006 15:59 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, those are all pretty dumb.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 19 May 2006 16:00 (nineteen years ago)

It would be a lot cooler if he advocated killing people. I'm sort of inspired when I see people thinking like that.

Justin Theroux is Hotness Incarnate (see "Six Feet Under").

Paul Theroux is an essayist/novelist (The Mosquito Coast is his best).

I don't know the last one.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Friday, 19 May 2006 17:00 (nineteen years ago)

I pick Paul. Reading The Great Railway Bazaar presently, and digging his Grumpy Traveler Who Is Painfully Aware of the Ironies of Every Situation, But Still Capable of Being Overcome by Beauty schtick.

Justin Theroux was very good in his brief time on 6 Feet Under.

Dont know the other guy.

erklie (erklie), Friday, 19 May 2006 17:02 (nineteen years ago)

According to Wikipedia, Louis is Paul's son, and Justin is his cousin.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 19 May 2006 17:08 (nineteen years ago)

This is more like it, my dear john:

I kind of sort of have a kind of sort of crush on Louis.

Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 19 May 2006 18:45 (nineteen years ago)

WOAH JUSTIN IS A BABE WITHOUT THE GLASSES.

HOLY CRAP.

he's starring in the new Lynch movie, INLAND EMPIRE. I HOPE HE IS NOT WEARING GLASSES IN IT.

He looks something like Sufjan Stevens meets Jeremy Northam in that photo.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 19 May 2006 18:58 (nineteen years ago)

There's another essayist, Alexander Theroux.

Eazy (Eazy), Friday, 19 May 2006 19:18 (nineteen years ago)

I vote Paul. I don't know who the other dudes are, and The Mosquito Coast, O-Zone and the travel books are all pretty classic.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 19 May 2006 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

I know one better than all 3. Her given name starts with M.

youn (youn), Friday, 19 May 2006 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

justin. i saw his penis on 6FUnder, though that's not the reason i'm choosing him.

jed_ (jed), Friday, 19 May 2006 23:58 (nineteen years ago)

jed, that's reason enough for me to choose him.

That and his culinary tastes as revealed in that Bust interview.

So, what kind of pistol is justin packing, jed?

Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Saturday, 20 May 2006 01:13 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know who any of these people are.

Funny, because I don't either, and yet I see their names over and over again, and every time I see "Theroux" I think "I don't know who that is." I mean I know Paul Theroux is a writer, but I always think, "I don't know anything about that writer," and yet never feel the urge to check him out. Perhaps "Theroux" would make a good term for a person fitting that discription.

louis is just a cuddly brother. you just wanna pinch his cheeks. i wanna pinch justin's too. his butt cheeks that is. wink wink

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Sunday, 21 May 2006 12:46 (nineteen years ago)

who was justin theroux in six feet under?

kyle (akmonday), Sunday, 21 May 2006 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

he had an affair with brenda when she moved into that bunglaow complex.

jed_ (jed), Sunday, 21 May 2006 14:31 (nineteen years ago)

Louis. I read one of Paul's travel books, and it was dull and preachy.

chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Sunday, 21 May 2006 16:13 (nineteen years ago)

paul theroux's a high magnitude asshole but he's easily my pick here.

j blount (papa la bas), Sunday, 21 May 2006 16:35 (nineteen years ago)

Justin Theroux's body in CA: Full Throttle sort of nauseated me. When muscles resemble exoskeletons is when I reach for the Raid.
